Blue, your telling me if I had $1,000,000 in profit a year, and my equipment was worth $100,000. My business is only worth $100,000?
The way he explained it though, it does sound like it may not be worth to much more than the equipment. Can't tell without the sales and profit numbers.

Jester,
A divorce 5 years ago has led her business to decline financially. The divorce resulted it her losing a lot of clientele. Her customer service is horrible, she does absolutely no advertising. The business is staying afloat off of repeat customer. The sad thing is that some of her old clients that use to use her full time are now giving her left over business they can't handle.
Would you trust her books?
Your last sentence shows you agree with me. lol
